File Extraction Software Instructions

Using WinZip
The file you downloaded should be in the “Temp” folder, try to open the file that downloaded. If the file doesn’t open automatically the “WinZip” application should open up. If “WinZip” doesn’t automatically execute, right click the file and select open with, and select Winzip from the list of software applications. If Winzip isn’t appearing on your list you need to download a separate extraction program, “setup.exe”.

Free File Extraction Software Instructions
These instructions are for downloading a free file extraction software program and installing the software needed for your Department of Business Administration courses.In order to view the files contained in the compressed file, you need file extraction software. For free software go to http://www.tucows.com/preview/194310?q=winace and download that program. Run the install and complete the program’s installation.

Once at the “tucows” page, enter “Winace” in the search box and click the “go” button.

From this page there should only be one result displayed, click on the program called “Winace”.

Once you click to download the program your computer should prompt you to save the file to your computer or just run it.
Selecting “Run” is demonstrated below.

After you saved the download, install program to your computer’s “C Drive” or run it, the installation should pop up and it will ask you where to save the program. Make sure it’s set to “C:\program files\Winace” , then click “Next” and the program should install.

After “WinAce” has been installed, go back to the folder containing the file you downloaded for your software, and right click on the file in it. Select “Open With” option.
